Background:The Medals as arranged are in correct order. There would be an American Defense Medal after the Good Conduct, and a Victory before the Occupation. The Navy Good Conduct was for Fidelity, Zeal, Obedience and awarded for completion of a 4 year enlistment, the American Theater was for service in the lower 48 States in training, as training cadre, service at ports, bases, airfields and stations, harbor, coastal and anti aircraft defense, recruitment, instructional positions at schools, colleges, universities and interfacing with Defense contractors. The European Theater was for service in North Africa, Sicily, Italy, United Kingdom, the Continent, Greenland, Iceland and Atlantic. The Pacific Theater was for service in Australia, New Guinea, Hawaii, Alaska, the Western, Southern and Northern Pacific. The Occupation Medal was for Naval Occupation Duty in Japan or Europe. This Medal Bar follows Valor Medals and precedes foreign decorations as well as the Korean and Vietnam Wars.

It is appropriate for Enlisted Sailors, most likely a Chief Petty Officer in this case, or for Officers up from the ranks.
